The rise of Bob Bradley through Global Soccer Ladder

The rise of Bob Bradley through Global Soccer Ladder

He may be an American but has traveled across the globe nurturing various soccer talents. 57-year-old Bob Bradley the current Head Coach of French Ligue 2 outfit Harve A.C. has had previous encounters in two different continent grounds. Bradley was once the U.S.A head coach, Egyptian National Coach as well as Norwegian side Stabaek manager.

Bob started his coaching career in his native land in college, MLS and later the US national team. A disastrous loss to Mexico in 2011 was the final blow to have experience as the US head coach. After he had been relieved off his duties, Bradley was approached by the Egyptian Football Association, which offered him a job as the manager of the Egyptian National Team. He would later go on to lose in the final qualifying match of the 2014 World Cup, which was enough to miss the Brazilian showdown.

Bob would then quit as the Egyptian head coach after the January 25 Revolution in Port Said. He moved to Norway with his family where he managed Norwegian side Stabaek through to the Europa League. It was one of the most times for him and his team which was promoted a year before he took charge. However, his tactics lifted the team up to third place finish, a cup semi-final spot as well as qualification for the Europa League. Two years down the line, Bradley opted for another test and, this time, he moved to French capital where he took charge of the French Ligue 2 outfit, Harve A.C, which is now owned by American businessman Vincent Volpe.

His success, however, comes at a cost too. Being an American, most English top flights were reluctant to offer him a job as they claim to be in need of a coach with Premier League experience which he lacked.

Le Havre is now placed third in the table after beating rivals Paris F.C and is in the automatic promotion sport to French Ligue. Bradley headed to Oslo to finalize some paper work of the UEFA Pro license which would allow him to manage any club in Europe.

Oakland now faced with fierce NFL competition from San Antonio and San Diego

Oakland now faced with fierce NFL competition from San Antonio and San Diego

The deal of moving the Chargers to Kroenkeworld is yet to be struck and hence bringing an enormous makeshift to the NFL. This comes after it is alleged that the available spots in Los Angeles have been assigned to two teams and this is a huge blow for the league which is not ready for taking a huge risk in making use of the public cash as well as other amenities in the construction of a new stadium for the Raiders.

The Rams were the leading team to be handed a place in L.A. later it would be claimed that the Raiders would be shifting to San Antonio. Chargers, on the contrary, have been given the notice to vacate San Diego and it is believed that their possible and only destination would be at the southern part of Los Angeles.

Adam Schefter believes that there is a high possibility of raiders to have a final destination if by any chance the Chargers leave. However, other sources claim that Raiders will not be making any possible trip to L.A. at the same time; it is not clear on the state of Oakland team that is just watching the drama unfolding without any contribution and especially to the building of the new stadium.

For NFL fanatics, it is clear that the Texans and the Cowboys have nothing in common to share. Nevertheless, if Charges decide to vacate, then Oakland would be left in a deep shock as San Diego would opt to replace the Chargers rather than building a new stadium. This would also see the new rivalry in town, and this may be the turning point for voters to be against the building of a new stadium if at all ballot box voting would be necessary to break the conflict.

Raiders will have to keep it cool in Oakland up to when a decision is made by the Chargers. Joining the Rams in Los Angeles will be a hard fight that would see Oakland initiates all its resources in developing a new stadium.
